I just realized. XY uses DNA strands and Mewtwo is going to have a role in it..

Your FACE looks like freaking slime. :troll:

Alright lets clarify some things.

IF this is a form for Mewtwo. Mewtwo is a shoe in.

IF this is not a form for Mewtwo and is instead some new pokemon, we may never figure out who will get in.

Thoughts?
Just make an IC duo team and call it a day :troll:
They can easily be interchangeable ALT costumes, seeing how their designs are pretty similar. I'd be happy with either one. I would lean more towards Mew3 to get people to shut up about wanting a gen 6 rep.

You know, what if say, Mew3XY and Chrom would get in before Mewtwo and Roy. Would that make people less pissed about Impa replacing Sheik? Cause as far as I can tell, Mewtwo and Roy -while absent in Brawl- are more popular than Sheik currently is.

The difference is, Pokemon B2/W2 could never include new pokemons only new forms while Pokemon X/Y it's expected for us to have new Pokemons....
It's not like it's impossible to have a new form.

Well at least we have a date for when we'll finally know whether it's a new form or Pokemon. Could also get Corocoro next week where it'll explain everything with the official trailer a couple days later. Anyway for now, new Pokemon or form I still think it's down to:

Pikachu
PT Red
Jigglypuff
Lucario
Mewtwo

Is more like a less arguable version of the Saki/Isa or Issac/Matthew question, either way I'm out for now.

I still think it's a Mewtwo forme based on the fact Mewtwo's new movie is called Mewtwo's re awakening.

It SHOULD have been. The bison also SHOULD have been Tauros evo
The Bison should NOT have been a Tauros Evo.

Tauros is a bull. Just a general bull.

AfroBison is **** awesome. And it works as a new Pokemon simply by being a different animal special all together. Also, Gen 5 is set in the States, and The Great Plains are notorious for the American Bison, and Water Buffalo. It's like saying American Eagle should have been a Fearow evolution or something...

Why are new characters with similarities to older characters so often disregarded?

Prime examples: Mew3XY, Chrom, Lucina and Impa.

I feel each of these would make good additions. Sure, Chrom and Lucina would mean no Roy, and perhaps even Ike would be a lucky additon if both make it, and Mew3XY and Impa would likely mean no Mewtwo and Sheik. But how bad is that in the end? We all accepted the fact that Young Link got replaced with Toon Link. So why would all these things be so bad now?

Like I said in the other thread, I don't know how I feel about this. I don't want it as the playable character. I think this truly cements Mewtwo in as the Pokemon character for SSB4.

Hopefully this new form (unless it's entirely different) can just be the final smash.

Yeah because fish turning to octopuss is more realistic than bull to bison

Well the people you find on these forums are hardcore fans. Our group will always be the first to get mad when something in the series changes, good or bad.

I want it as a playable, this new thing ****s all over Mewtwo design-wise. It's MUCH more creative imo.

Please be a form! That way we can get both!

i don't think Chrom and Mew3XY are disregarded. Lucina is too similar to Marth, and Impa doesnt have a lot of support.

Remember when we all where posting Mewtwo pictures and stuff a few days back? Looking back, it's weirdly scary.

Anyways, Mewtwo will be discussed a lot more when we speak of Pokemon. And I like that.

Yes it is actually. I can't remember the species, but there is a species of Octupus that begin as a "fish-like" mollusk.

Pokemon always draws reference from real life.

Right, let's get this sorted out a bit here. There seems to be some confusion going around. I'll just lay down some facts and we'll go from there

Fact the first: This Pokémon REPLACES standard Mewtwo on the poster for the movie Extremespeed Genesect: <b>Mewtwo</b> Awakens. This indicates that it is likely to be Mewtwo. This is further confirmed by the official Japanese site promising the new trailer on April 18th featuring Mewtwo and Newtwo, where it says secrets shall be revealed

The official sites say that it's a new Pokémon. This has occurred before, most recently with the reveal of Black & White Kyurem where Smash, and Junichi Masuda, labelled them as new Pokémon. This become a point for discussion for a while until we managed to get the artwork from press sites seen to be labelled as 646_black and 646_white.

This to me at least indicates that it's a new form. However, who knows, it could be some new variation introduced in XY

It's all moot anyway, we'll find out next week
From Serebii himself.

Actually, I didn't want Tauros to evolve into Bouffalant as well. When I was younger, I always drew the evolve form of Tauros like some sort of bipedal minotaur (but it runs on all fours). Yeah, the drawing is pretty bad, but I always thought the concept was pretty cool...

Not remoras.

The bison would not suck if it was an evo

I agree, I want both him and Mewtwo playable too. If they are a transformation, they can pull a Samus/Zamus and we can get both in the game. But if their seperate Pokemon I don't really know if I can feel confident that both will become playable. :/

Speaking of Pokémon and evolutions, I never really quite got what Ampharos was supposed to be. Sure, I loved the thing back in Gold, but still. It doesn't look like a sheep at all.

Well, that does it, folks. Because he's now the second most-wanted character in the U.S., the most wanted character in Japan, a top 5 most popular Pokemon, and the recipient of much backlash due to his exclusion from Brawl, Mewthree is now a shoo-in for SSB4. Form or no form, he's RELEVANT.
